Need Information About Arbonne Products

I am going to a friend's house this week for my first "Arbonne" spa party, and will probably purchase a product or two. Money is tight, and these products don't look cheap, so I am wondering if anyone has a favorite or two to recommend; ones that are "worth" the splurge?

Totally worth it for your little baby. Most people don't even know what is in most baby washes and lotions, it's pretty scary. They say the cancer causing agents are so miniscule in regular baby soaps but think about it over a lifetime, it really adds up. Plus, the things we put on our skin are absorbed right into our bloodstream. There is also concern because infants and toddlers develop at such a rapid rate the first few years some experts believe their little bodies are much more receptable to the carcinogins and icky stuff. So, I feel that spending more on organic or natural body products for our little ones is completely worth it. I like the Arbonne baby wash although there are other brands too. This is a really great website:

Just my two cents!

Unless you really want the products that are being offered, remember you were invited to her home, it should be like going to a store or looking online. Unless you see something you would have bought without obligation to someone, don't buy anything at all. It is okay. I know when we are invited to these parties for every sales item known to man all of us feel an obligation to the friend to buy something so they can get something free or at a discount. You don't need to do this. If you do feel obligated to do something and money is tight for you. Either buy the cheapest thing that actually appeals to you or book a party(no money on your part) as alot of times the hostess gets discounts and free stuff for dollars sold and parties booked. This way you can get a discount if something did catch your eye. The last couple of "parties" I have been at I have brought a batch of brownies and a smile and brought nothing home. My money has places to be these days and it is not on "stuff" I never wanted to buy.

Arbonne products are great. Think about what your concerns are about your skin and ask the consultant questions. A good consultant will either know how to help or will get info and get back to you.
I have dry skin and love the RE9 body lotion, the lip balm in the before sun line and the Awaken sea salt scrub and the Awaken shower gel. The FC5 line for face has a lower price point than the RE9 (anti-aging) line but the products are all very concentrated so they last a lot longer.
Hope that helps! Have fun and don't feel pressured.

I sell the products. They are all great! The baby line is fabulous, sun line for this summer, detox hair mask and rescue wash if you all swim alot, FC5 line is new and is less expensive than RE9. I still love my RE 9 set though.

If you host a presentation you can get alot of products at major discount. You can also sign up as a preferred client and save 20% off. Ask the consultant to help you.

Good luck and enjoy! It is all about trying products and relaxing! If you find items you must have then buy them.

Their hand cream and foot cream are both excellent. The foot cream keeps the dry cracked feet away in the summer which is nice. I have also used their baby sunscreen products.

I used these products exclusively for a while--got too pricey for me but the one I truly love and still buy is the RE9 Reveal Facial Scrub. It's a great exfoliater. I keep it in my shower and use it on my face every morning. Wonderful stuff.

At the party I went to, the Arbonne lady really wanted me to pay $20 for a membership along with my order. I didn't want that and really had to tell her again and again. I just bought a "mercy" gift which was a baby product that I can't remember. I think it was $15 for a tube of diaper cream or something like that.

I think that was one of the cheapest items available.

My daughter used to sell arbonne. I love their products and I find that if I can only get a few things...I at least get the face wash and the lotion. They are the best. The eye cream is also one that I hate to be without. I hope that helps. K.

When you go to the party you may get a sample start kit, you can decide for yourself if you like the product. Don't worry about purchasing that spa night, the hostess gets buying credit for the number of people that attended, you will also get a fantastic offer to hostess a party yourself and maybe get 80% off the regular purchase price. The products have the best quality of any natural based anti-aging care products, look for a personable and sincere rep. One that will take your skin care personally, like MaryAnne Daily in McHenry. ____@____.com is also a teacher perhaps she can make arrangements with you when she needs child care for business meetings.

Hi Stephanie, The Shea Butter Hand and Body wash and Lotion ($36 I think) are amazing! A friend gave me this set for Christmas and though I wash and lotion my hands at least 10 times a day, there is still plenty left and it smells wonderful! I know $36 is a lot but it will make your hansd and fingernails look as though you get regular manicures, you cuticles will be soft nails get stronger, definately woth the money!
Have fun at the party!

I have a girlfriend who sold this for awhile. If you want to give me your email address I will have her contact you. I don't know much about it at all as I never went to one of the parties but she says it is amazing.

They are great products. My advice would be to spend the $29.00 (I think) and buy in as a "consultant" That way you can get everything 35% off. My favorite is the sea salt scrub...I scrub my face and neck and arms every morning in the shower and your skin feels like silk! (And I'm old!)
You might even consider doing some selling yourself for some extra money! My friend who sells it, has her whole family using all the products and is making a lot of money to boot! Good luck!

If it is for you, I would say the hand cream. The RE9 (orange)face wash. The Damage Control Sunscreen (has anti aging in it also.) The sunless tanning/sunscreen that is also anti aging. This are all things I LOVE!!

For kids the sunscreen can't be beat and it is worth the price. A little goes a LONG way and lasts a long time. I don't feel the need to reapply as often because there are no additives that keep it on top of the skin to come off.

Have fun!!

Book a party so you can get the discount and free products!

Their foot cream is great, and one tube will last you a pretty long time. The ABC Baby body lotion is good too. These are two of the cheaper products that they have, and I think they're well worth the money. I like their NutriminC line too, but it is really expensive. You should try samples of these products before you spend that kind of money. Have fun at the spa party!

Stay away from the skincare lines. I love them but they are pricey. I also love the Awaken Scrub. I also really like their hand and foot cream. Hope that helps!

I use to sell them! My favorite product is the sea source hair mask and rescue wash. I swim two times a week and these products clean out all of the clorine better than anything I have ever tried. I have long blond hair with expensive highlights and these products help keep my hair from getting damaged. I also like the exfoliating mask. I just use it once a week and it keeps my skin looking refreshed. The products can get expensive. I you join you can get 35 % off and there is no obligation to buy or sell the products. Have fun!

I received an 4.3 oz bottle of hand cream in my stocking from my grandma who sells Arbonne. It works really well. Also I have gotten some of the baby lotion and it worked great also.

I am not sure if you already went but in case you haven't here is my opinion. I don't like to spend a lot either but I have bought and liked some of the Arbonne products. I like the Intelligence line daily cleanser and facial moisturizer. I did not care for their makeup. But the body butters are really good, if you'd rather go the "spa" route. My mom likes the shower scrubs. There are packages that come with balancers, facial masks, plus the moisturizer and cleanser which I did at first buy but I quite honestly don't use the other stuff. For myself, I have always bought department store quality moisturizers and cleansers and cheaper makeup, so the cleanser and moisturizer are two products I will replenish from Arbonne. I think they work well. They do have a skin conditioning oil that works well with cuts and scrapes and sunburns but I think it is pricey for the quantity. Hope this helps, the products are really good, just pricey for those of us on budgets.

Just a thought. I know that one of my friends is a rep and she loves the line. One product that is supposed to be excellent is their baby or children's sun screen. May be something useful for your kids. I think they had some nice mineral powders too that will last for a while. Or if you want something seasonal - look into their bronzers - if you are not interested in starting their skin care line.

Good luck.
